A few weeks ago when my daughter and son-in-law visited, Aaron was telling me that I needed a pickup truck. "Yes", I told him, "but I can't afford two vehicles". Then he told me I needed a utility trailer. "Yes", I said, "it's on my wish list but I've done without this long, it can wait". Well the next thing I knew, I was informed that I was the owner of a pull behind utility trailer and I would get a call when they were ready to install the trailer hitch on my little car.

Was I ever surprised. I'll get a lot of use out of this little thing and now I won't have to beg neighbors to borrow their trucks! I'm not used to pulling it yet though, and don't even ask me about backing up with this thing. I need to practice!

Now jumping subjects...here is Topaz acting like a vulture like Snoopy does on the Charlie Brown specials.

Here's a picture of Topaz and Smudge all cozy under the mattress I still haven't put away since I had company!

Speaking of matresses...I'm exhausted and ready to hit mine. Poor Princess had me up at about 3:00 a.m. this morning. Bless her little heart. She's getting so old and crotchedy and can't make it through the night without going outside once or twice. It's like having a newborn baby all over again!
